Hello!

1. The pamphlets are mostly self-contained and require no real magical reconstruction. The water damage might make some parts slightly illegible, but wouldn't bar readers from overall gleaning the following:

90 Days Since Conscription: Where Are Your Sons? it is unclear what the purpose of the conscription was, but the poster drawing shows hesitant young men being forcibly removed by a lawman from the loving grasps of their weeping families, while a man toying with a fire ball watches on with a smile.

Taravast Was Our Father's Question: includes a few paragraphs on why Ellethia must pursue its own path to growth and thriving glory, rather than remain locked in this ongoing rivalry for magical exploration with Taravast. The essay argues that constantly benchmarking off Taravast will stunt Ellethia's true progress.

Who Watches through Your Mirrors? a community group questions whether the newly debuted mirrors of luck, counsel or protection that have become popular in Ellethia are not secretly being used by the government to spy on its citizens. The group argues that Ellethia has come to overrely on magic that only the elite understand, ensuring their wealth and prosperity.


2. Are there any other interesting bits of information about Ellethia and what happened

Bear with me — what happened...?


3. A visit to the botanical gardens will reveal hundreds of stone plats, some marked with names. The phrase Truth Bows Only to the Sun, also found on the plates of Ellethia-Hamsour, is engraved on some of the plates. Most stone pieces have been cut to the same size, but the discrepancy in length/width and the cracks in the engravings suggest a rushed job. There are no actual graves. The dates inscribed on the plates show the deceased passed at various ages: children, adults, elders. They all perished in the same year. The plates that mention a day show the same one.
